If each rod is 1/16 of a mile long, how many rods are needed for the project? 86 64 72 96 Explanation:To find the number of rods needed, divide the total distance required (3/8 of a mile) by the length of each rod (1/16 of a mile): (3/8) * (1/16) = (3/8) * (16/1) = 6 * 16 = 96 rods. 2 / 20If you have 2/3 of a pizza and each pizza has 8 slices, how many slices do you have? 8 10 12 4 3 / 20A car traveled 3/5 of the distance at a speed of 60 km/h and the remaining 2/5 of the distance at a speed of 75 km/h. What was the average speed for the entire trip? 68 km/h 66 km/h 72 km/h 70 km/h Explanation:To find the average speed, you can use the harmonic mean formula for two speeds: Average speed = (2 * 60 * 75) / (60 + 75) = 70 km/h. 4 / 20Find the least number which will leaves remainder 5 when divided by 8, 12, 16 and 20. 245 124 326 135 5 / 20If 4/7 of a number is equal to 3/5 of another number, and the sum of the two numbers is 84, what is the larger number? 63 60 45 70 6 / 20What is the largest fraction among the following? 7/12 3/5 5/8 4/7 Explanation:To compare fractions, you can either find a common denominator or convert them to decimals. In this case, 3/5 is the largest fraction among the options. 7 / 20The sum of the squares of 3 consecutive positive numbers is 365. The sum of the numbers is 30 33 45 36 8 / 20Arrange the following fractions from smallest to largest: 1/2, 5/6, 3/4 3/4, 5/6, 1/2 5/6, 3/4, 1/2 1/2, 3/4, 5/6 9 / 20A tank initially contains a mixture of alcohol and water in the ratio of 2:5.
